DELL Precision 5510 Mobile Workstation

Who is the Dell Precision 5510 for?

With a slim and lightweight design inspired by the premium XPS line, this machine is aimed at professional graphic designers who need to travel frequently.

Innovative Design

The Dell Precision 5510 maintains a unibody aluminum design with exquisite, eye-catching CNC diamond-cut edges, similar to the previous Precision M3800 version. However, instead of continuing the soft, curved design, the manufacturer has designed a more squared and angular chassis, yet it still retains charming curved accents. The machine is also slightly thinner and more compact compared to its predecessor.

The display features an ultra-thin Infinity Edge design, maximizing the screen viewing experience. However, the camera is still placed at the bottom, which can be slightly inconvenient during use. The hinges are integrated into the chassis to optimize the slim and lightweight design.

Skylake CPU with Powerful Performance

The Dell Precision 5510 is equipped with 6th Generation Skylake CPUs, featuring many improvements in clock speed and a complete change in CPU process. With high-performance chips and a massive number of cores and threads, the Precision 5510 can easily handle heavy 3D design files and render videos smoothly in a short amount of time.

The Quadro M1000M graphics card is a major strength of the Precision 5510 for performing 3D graphics tasks, especially when using 3DSMax.

Display

The machine’s display quality is excellent. In the base option, the device is equipped with a Full HD IPS panel, featuring 400 nits of brightness and 100% sRGB color gamut, making it suitable for the graphic design work of most users. This is also an excellent screen for daily entertainment.

Additionally, the machine offers a 4K IPS IGZO touchscreen option with 100% AdobeRGB color gamut, which is incredibly wonderful for design, thanks to its highly accurate color reproduction technology. This is the most outstanding display option for graphic design, especially for image or video graphics.

Keyboard and Touchpad

The Dell Precision 5510 uses a chiclet keyboard with a relatively shallow key travel. The keycaps are flat, which may cause slight hand fatigue during long-term use. The key spacing is somewhat narrow, but it provides high responsiveness and accuracy, preventing typing errors.

The touchpad is covered with smooth, premium glass. There is almost no delay or lack of sensitivity when using this touchpad. The gesture system is also very smooth and precise. The two mouse buttons have excellent feedback with quiet clicking sounds.

Connectivity Ports

As an Ultrabook, the machine only has 2 USB Type A 3.0 ports on both sides; the left side also includes a USB Type C 3.1 gen 1 port that supports the Thunderbolt 3 protocol; the right side features a traditional SD card slot and an HDMI 1.4 port. Overall, this connectivity system is sufficient for multimedia design needs.

This remains the most complete mobile workstation available at this time.
